Service Centers
An internal entity that provides a service to the various divisions of an institution. The service might be purchased from commercial sources, but, for reasons of convenience, control of cost, is more effectively provided through a unit of the institution. The primary function of a service center is to provide financially self-sustaining services to other departments of the institution.
